I Go to Kitsuregawa Hot Spring and Renkouin Temple

 

I went to Kitsuregawa hot spring the other day. 

Unexpectedly, my wife and I found a temple called Renkouin near the hot spring house.

We walked in the temple and found two statues of Buddha and others. 

The lotus seeds grew beautifully in the garden pond.

Chrysanthemum Fower Festival

When I went to Kitsuregawa town the other day, I happened to find a local chrysanthemum flower festival.

This kind of the festival displaying chrysanthemum flowers is quite popular all over Japan in this season.

The flower of chrysanthemum is special to Japanese and has been cherished for a long time.

Because, it is the symbol of the Japanese royal family.

Do you know that the Japanese passport has a chrysanthemum emblem?
